# secure-random-string
Node.js module that generates a cryptographically secure random string with a given length
## Usage
```javascript
var srs = require('secure-random-string');
```
### Default behavior: Generate a random string 32 characters long.
```javascript
// Sync
var result = srs();
// Async
srs(function(sr) {
console.log(sr);
});
```
### Options: length, urlsafe
Optionally, you can specify a 'length' option to specify a length.
The 'urlsafe' option replaces a potential `+` character with `-` and the `/` character
with `_`, created a valid [base64url](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base64) format string.
```javascript
// sync
var result = srs({length: 256, urlsafe:true});
// async
srs({length: 256, urlsafe:true}, function(sr) {
console.log(sr);
});
```
